Make a traditional Christmas wreath

Here is a similarly structured christmas wreath using wire formed into a circle and wrapping green foliage round. This can easily be fixed with more wire. Add fir combs, red berries either dried or beads. Finish by adding a large ribbon tied into a bow and you create a lovely festive wreath. You could add dried fruit, cinnamon sticks other beads, stars or ornaments depending on availability or taste. This wreath was made by trimming leylandi trees in the garden but you could use holly, ivy yew or any other abundant evergreen tree. I used a wire hanger and formed a circle shape but any reasonably strong yet pliable wire would do. Why not give it a go?
